Hi there, Jenny here PO co-ordinator: looking for replacement PO for Chile (Ian Staples has returned to UK). Any ideas, or can you keep your eyes/ears open for me? Contact me at occportofficers@gmail.com Thanks!

Sorry about delay, no internet access. Left NZ early Sept, too early for Southern route, so went via Raivavai, Gambier and Easter I., a very easy passage with light winds.
Currently P Montt, waiting for some spares before heading south. Plan to stay ~ 2 years in S America.

Sounds like you have some exciting cruiing ahead! Where did you make your landfall in Chile and how long did you take to make the passage from NZ?
